A Night Howler
Night Howlers (a.k.a. Werewolves) are large, bipedal wolf-like predators.
Lore[]
A Night Howler
Night Howlers are found in Scosglen,[1] and in the southern region of the Dark Wood.[2] Some say they are part man, part beast.[3] Their bite is infectious, and the bitten victim experiences great amounts of pain before transforming into a new Night Howler.[4] Druids are able to transform into these creatures.[5]
In 1272, the Night Howlers of Dark Wood infiltrated adventuring parties, and sabotaged them.[6] In 1285, they were spotted in lands bordering the Scosglen.[3]

Diablo III[]
The Night Howler in Diablo III
Night Howlers are encountered in the Shrouded Moors of Act II in Diablo III.
In close combat, Night Howlers deliver quick and highly damaging claw swipes. They can move quite fast, and are usually encountered in packs of two-three or even more. They count as Beast enemies.
In addition, they can leap to quickly cross short distances. Leaping on top of the enemy will immediately cause an attack too.
Occasionally, werewolves may howl, empowering the damage of themselves and the nearby Night Howlers for some time: visually, the empowered beasts have their claws glow red.
Whitefur Howlers are much larger, but are a rare sight: even two at a time are not easy to find. They have the ability to leap backwards and then charge at the enemy, dashing quickly for about 40-50 yards for high damage and Knockback.
